Thanks for the comments. I don’t live by the Baltic, but took a Baltic cruise a couple of years ago. It was wonderful! I have several pieces of Baltic amber that came directly from Baltic countries and truly love amber.

I like to contrast the shape and texture of tube beads with the others. I’ve attached a picture where I used them to connect hematite and freshwater pearls and add some length. I also think it would be striking to use two of the tube beads with a narrow but fatter gemstone rondelle.
